Tsuchiyu Traditional Kokeshi, Jinnohara, CRACKED

• 
• 

NAME: Tsuchiyu traditional Japanese kokeshi

MAKER: Kazunori Jinnohara

SIZE: 15-1/4" (38.7cm)

CONDITION: Large crack running down the right side of the face. It starts at the center of the wood. The natural tendency of wood is to crack from the center out. This was probably worsened by hot, dry, long term storage. There is also a hairline crack on the opposite side on the top and at the base of the head. Few other minor to small dents elsewhere.

NOTES: Mr. Jinnohara passed in 1998 at the age of 69.

It's a nice doll from a maker that I don't see often. If you are interested in making this purchase, please do it as a separate transaction. You will be charged $8.00 and I will cover the rest for U.S. addresses (heavy doll). Offered below cost in hopes of finding a good home.
